Common Star Wars Guns: Pistols or Rifles

You know those new gun-like guns from the Star Wars sets? The larger "rifle" guns are clearly rifles, and the Clone Commando pistols are clearly pistols, but what are the more common guns (like in the AT-ST set)- Rifles or Pistols?
Perhaps they should count as rifles if used in two hands, and pistols when used in one?

You have been destroyed, wiped out, and disintegrated. Defeat is imminent.

definitely not pistols. Try controlling something half the size of your body with one hand and you probably will only have one hand pretty soon. I vote carbines, though personally I don't use them, preffering the SW rifles, new SW pistols and, and custom weapons.
